Violence Against Women Teaching Guide

This teaching guide covers genital mutilation, wife abuse, rape, and pornography. It was prepared by a group of senior Women's Studies students at Gettysburg College in May, 1993. Each section focuses on incorporating material on a particular form of violence against women into existing courses, including an annotated bibliography of suggested readings for students, resources for faculty, and concrete examples of how to use this material in the classroom.
